Foley Partner Judith Waltz authored an article that appeared in the August 2010 edition of Medical Device and Diagnostic Industry titled “U.S. Focuses Enforcement on Manufacturers.” Waltz discusses increasing healthcare enforcement activity under the Obama administration, stating that the federal government has focused enforcement activity on how providers are billing products to government healthcare programs. She recommends that manufacturers review recent False Claims Act settlements and consider whether further scrutiny of their product support services and pricing strategies may be warranted.
